Hollow People

© 2008 Mark Cote

1. Always smiling and acting sweet
    But ignore you if you pass on the street
    never showing fear, sorrow or regret
    walking mannequins never upset

(chorus) nice on the outside, but hollow within
                like an empty Easter egg with a silly grin
                Like a scarecrow without any skin
                Hollow People all around
                Shallow faces in every town

2. they cast no shadow since they have no soul
    only silhouettes of heartless control
    A world of today and not tomorrow
    full of anxiety and all this sorrow
(chorus)

3. It shines, it beeps they want it now
    How does it work, they don't care how
    will it last even another day?
    Probably not, they'll throw it away
(chorus)
